Are the books being prohibited though? I think all of us believe there is an age appropriate metric on all content in our schools. There always has been, hasn't there?

 

That’s sort of the point.  Nobody disputes that something like a playboy magazine shouldn’t appear in a public or school library.  Nobody.  It’s when we get into the removal of non-explicit material covering certain subject areas that I have a problem.  If MAGA wants to say that children shouldn’t have access to explicit materials, and wants to define “explicit” as pornographic, then I’d be on board. (Defining “pornographic” is its own nettlesome issue, but that’s sort of a “know it when you see it” thing.)  But MAGA hasn’t framed its complaint as such. Again to my anecdotal interpretation, the issue doesn’t rest simply with explicit materials, but with a wider swath of literature and thought that is not explicit and which respect to which MAGA simply disagrees.  That is not my America.

Sorry, but it’s a ban.  Plain and simple.  You want to prevent literature that you deem to consider an objectionable or disagreeable topic from appearing in a public or school library.  That’s unamerican, and it’s a ban.  

So no age restrictions on any books? 
 

can you buy the books outside of schools? If so it’s just a restriction

Disagree. If you can get a book on the internet or in a public library the book isn't banned. Is there anything, anything at all, that you believe would be inappropriate in a grade school library?

We disagree on the dictionary definition of ban.  For yours to work, you’d have to fire up the DeLorean, get a timely lightning strike, and get Noah Webster on board before he takes his dirt nap.  

 

As to your other point, I’m not the guy looking to ban, so it’s not my list to make.  But I believe my answer lies in other posts.

A restriction, like a prohibition?  Which *gasp* is a ban.

Why do you feel the need to describe a difference of opinion to yours as MAGA? That's where any sort of meaningful discussion on our differences goes south, and quickly.

 

For example, I think a book describing a #### ###, with pictures< is inappropriate. You?

You and Tipper Gore might have more in common than you think.

This particular difference is a MAGA issue.

Just above you support restricting certain content. And I don't consider you a banner. Interesting?

You’re entitled to your own opinion but your own facts. Definitions of words matter and just cause you keep using the word ban will not change its definition

The definition is used appropriately.  If you disagree, then I suggest doing such things as picking up empty cans (not Bud Light cans, of course), or holding a bake sale to raise funds sufficient to purchase a dictionary.  A garage sale may also satisfy this purpose.

Love the passion and drama. For shyts and giggles, I looked up the definition, and your position on the definition couldn't be further from your claim.

I don’t get your point.  If you’re asking whether I believe pornography should be banned from publicly-funded K-12 schools and from public libraries, the answer is an emphatic yes.  If you’re trying to get into some sort of semantics game, unfortunately for you I don’t find that sufficiently amusing at the moment to participate.  Maybe later, maybe tomorrow.  But semantics just isn’t funny enough for me right now.

And yet you didn’t publish your definition.

This wouldn't be a thing if trans men didn't demand to compete in biological women's sports. Your solution is degrading women. Why the hate towards women? Let's either have trans men compete against biological men or lets start a separate trans league and let trans men compete against other trans men?

 

 

So, lets expose EVERY CHILD - literally, expose - EVERY CHILD's GENITALS - so that we can weed out transMEN participating in WOMENS' sports.

 

Got it.

 

Meanwhile, GYM JORDAN probably loves the idea...

I trust my position and disagreement with you is clear to you as well. When you feel like disengaging, have at it. After all, you self imposed the stalemate

How did we get to exposing every child's genitals?

I don’t even know what the stalemate is.  You’re playing some semantical game about “ban.”  You disagree with Noah Webster with respect to the definition of the word.  Fine.  Maybe you have a problem with linguists.  Whatever.  Beyond that, I have no clue what you’re talking about.

You have a point on the semantics of it.  Perhaps what should have been said is exposing the genitals of every child who wishes to compete or to attempt to compete in interscholastic sports.  

 

A smaller universe of those who must submit to an inspection of their junk, to be sure, but it doesn’t change the fact that said inspection is really, really messed up.
